I am just finishing up the install of the 87 style intake from JS

I have an 87 TB cable but it is too short. It holds the butterfly open a bit when I mount it up to the TB. I have the 87 cable bracket but it was sold with the bottom mount cut off. I was told it was for the cruise control - which I dont care about.

The top seems to be for the TV cable (trans) and the middle one for the throttle - the bottom for cruise.

Can anyone help me here ? Am I missing something ? Dont have an 87 to look at to compare it to....

Can anyone e-mail me a pic of the proper cable hookup ?

here are some pics of mine....

top fwd is tranny cable,the middle is for cruise cable and lwr is for throttle. you seem to need the part of the brkt youre missing.
 
I cut the top part out there...kinda like a V shape - it was in the way of my wastegate nipple a little.

The bottom is cut off.....so what u are saying is that I have the TV cable and the cruise fitting...the lower one is throttle - im missing that.

right ?
 
Is the throttle cable mount ahead of the cruise cable one ?

Im short like about 1 1/4" or so.
 
Throttle cable is mounted fwd of cruise cable. throttle cable is lwr bottom hole of brkt. Cruise cable goes just above throttle attach area,but @ an inch aft. and tv cable from trans is the most fwd attach area on brkt.
